  • Book Report On Dawn By Elie Wiesel

    The book Dawn written by Elie Wiesel is a short yet deep book which covers many issues, one key topic is about life and death. In general I feel that Elie doesn't put enough emphasis on the value to life instead, death is mentioned so often in the book that every earth doesn't hold a significant value anymore. The death of each person in the book is barely remembered, suggesting that it isn't of much importance. The view on death of all in the book is that it is inevitable, when Gad asked Elisha to join the terrorist group, he stated ” give me ur fate ......” This implies that once Elisha joins the group, his fate will no longer be his, the terrorist group now controls him.
